Senator sherman will also make some

an effort from Senator CoCkrell upon the
condition of the two parties and upon the
workings OF the government departments.
Edmunds proposes 10 make strike for

eral OF Virginia, and was one OF its most
noted orators. John Reeves Daniel was
attorney general Of North Carolina. and
Peter Vivian Daniel, who studied law in
the Office OF Edmund Randolph, previously
member OF Washington cabinet, was a
Judge on The supreme bench and was a
personal friend Of Andrew Jackson. John
MOncure Daniel was one OF the noted
editors OF the south years ago, and he was
one OF the men who lent Edgar A. Poe
money when he was in want. He was ap-
pointed minister TO Sardinia by Buchanan.
and while there 1t is said that he created
scandal by taking To one Of the royal
balls a countess who had not been invited
This John Moncure Daniel was wounded
in the arm during the late war and after
wards became an editor at Richmond. He
here attacked jefferson Davis and Mr..
Elmore, the Confederate treasurer. and
in 1864 Elmore challenged him. Daniel
could not point his pistol on account Of
his wounded arm and received a shot In
the leg. He died three days before the
Confederacy fell. John Warwick Daniel,
the present senator, has been a candidate
for governor Of Virginia. but was defeated
by Cameron. He now succeeds Billy
Malone, and as far as speaking ability IL
concerned the change is undoubtedly for
the better
Malone was n remarkable character,
and his rufiled shirts. his bell shaped coats
and his piratical air made him one Of the
striking figures Of congress He was no
speaker, however, and such efforts as he
made were generally read. Daniel speaks
largely of hand. He uses good language
and throws I'm an occasional sentence which
reminds one Of John Randolph, Of Roam
oke lie is in striking contrast with His
cock, whom some consider an ADLER man
than he. HiscOck is tall. fun chested and
fun Of dignity. He makes a good speech
and always does the proper thing at the
proper time. He represents the greatest
state of the Union, and he was one Of the
leaders Of the lower house while he was in
it. lie has probably better knowledge
Of congressional matters than has Daniel,
and he will certainly make some Of his
best efforts during the present session.
